As the French film director Robert Bresson once said, “Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen.”21 If you don’t try something, it will assuredly never exist. Not your version, anyway. True, not all endeavors will be successful, but even our so-called failures can be valuable teachers.
If we don't learn to mythologize our lives, inevitably we will pathologize them.
Richard Rohr
How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. What we do with this hour, and that one, is what we are doing. A schedule defends from chaos and whim. It is a net for catching days. It is a scaffolding on which a worker can stand and labor with both hands at sections of time.
— Annie Dillard, ’The Writing Life’, 1989
